This period being called a MISER, STINGY CREATURE ..., should be accepted as a COMPLIMENT.

If you spend anyhow, you go see anyhow.

Though this doesn't mean nobody is blowing anymore because of recession.

What is it that the eye have nt see neither the ear haven't had ,,,, what will be will surly B

But come to tink of it oo, Buhari has truly become an obstacle in d progess of Nigerians. Yeye man of a president. Like I said, Nigerians r smart, hardworking n will always find a away out.

In view of the present economic situation around the world and Nigeria in particular , adequate cautions must be taking by us all.

Be prepared to let go of some things and spend only when absolutely necessary. If you have saved money, try not to touch it quickly.

Avoid capital projects until you are certain of replenishing your bank accounts.

Avoid social travels that bring no added income.
If attending a burial, wedding, naming ceremony, marriage anniversary will eat into your savings, avoid them. You would be called names, accept the name calling but understand that these same people will call you worse names if you have to borrow from them to feed your family.

Reduce your responsibilities. Your first duty is to your family. If you don't provide for them, others will rarely do so.

Talk to your friends who are working not to bother asking you for favours.

Avoid those who ask you in advance what you are going to get for them on their birthdays or Valentine day. They tell you things are hard but refuse to agree that things are hard for you too.

Cut your pants according to your cloth. If you think that staying in Lekki will take more than half of your savings, move to Otta.

The downfall of a man is not the end of his life. Help your friends to start cutting costs by cutting costs yourself. Don't spend thousands to celebrate your birthday because you will be putting pressure on them to celebrate theirs.

If they call and ask how your birthday is going to be, tell them "Ground no level". Tell them you hope things will improve next year.

Do not be pushed into unnecessary spending for any reason.

Even if you have the money to spend, spend on things that can uplift your life and the life of others.

People have spent millions on their wedding, only to live unhappily thereafter.

People have spent millions on their birthdays, only to be forgotten a few month after.

Most importantly understand that happiness does not come from vanity.

There are hundreds of people out there that ready to rip you off even those you might not imagine.

i lost a mill to gambling

Op your write up is a bit of crap and it shows that you are lack of economic ideas. You are advising a country experiencing recession to reduce spending which will in turn slower the economy growth rate.I think you are one of these APC stewards or disciples who are blinded because of their loyalty to the Fulani Ruler who lacks the capacity to run a large economy in the 21st century.The current problem bedeviling this nation is that too much money is been withheld by few Nigerians who are scared of spending it in a draconian and dictatorship regime that does not give room for people to create wealth freely.It is only when when this govt decide to change its lopsided approach to tackling corruption before things can improve for the betterment of Nigerians otherwise we have to wait for another 3 years when a more capable leader will emerge.

idiotic

When people stop spending recession bites harder when they start spending recession stops and growth starts.

The money is there but those who have are neither spending nor investing. That is the root cause of recession. Even the FG who has budgtted 6 trillion. What have they spent? When the FG is not releasing, and the rich are not spending you are bound to have recession.

It has very little to do with oil price. FG should know better.

The current Finance Ministry is desperate to cut and cut. That is what is sparking recession! The minister also shows a wrong body language. That fuels it. Dont get me wrong. She is a good hand but I think she will do a great job in another ministry (such as Budget & Planning or Police Affairs).

Nigerians have loads of dollars in the dorm accounts and in foreign accounts. That is more than what oil is currently fetching. You need to be savvy economically to unleash those idle funds to foster growth.

The current administration is looking in the wrong direction for answers. They should find ways to inspire confidence.

When Hiddink took over at Chelsea last season, they started winning again. It was the same team that was losing under Jose. Re-shuffle your ministers and get one or two who can greatly inspire CONFIDENCE.

Many are mad, but few are roaming. The Op has passed a message to the average Nigerian. It is up to you to accept or reject it. You could spend all your life's earnings for all I care. Idiot, who looks at everything with a political lens. I just don't know what the op's submission has got to do with APC and PDP. You wailers should grow up and stop pouring and transferring your aggressions on innocent Nigerians for sending your corruption hero back to his village. You can go head butt a cement if you're pained.

Lopsided distribution of wealth is not only a Nigerian problem. In 2014, it was discovered that 1% richest inhabitants of the earth control 48% of the world's wealth distribution. While 99% of the world population shared 52% of wealth or world GDP.

And guess what, the 1% are getting richer, while the 99% are getting poorer that it was projected by end of 2016, the world's 1% richest population will be controlling 50% of the world's wealth. So as we speak, if this trend continues as more and more people are becoming billionaires every year, according to Forbes, 99% of the world will continue getting poorer. There are currently 2,500 certified billionaires in the world. Dollar billionaires please

As an addendum, Amancio Ortega, the world's biggest fashion retailer has unseated Bill Gates as the richest man in the world...

So,you as a common Nigerian should squander ALL you have in other to help kick start the economy? it doesn't take a Phd in economics to appreciate what the OP is talking about..simply cut your coat according to your clothes..is that so hard for you to appreciate..

OP your list is incomplete oo
Also cut your girlfriends to avoid unnecessary spending

I think advising people to spend more in an import dependent economy is no way to boost it.

Whatever u called this sh!t u put up here is nothing but crap.. You sure are blinded by your hatred for simple facts and or maybe your lust for the buffoon who played a major role is getting us where we are today. The OP just gave his simple opinions on how he felt people could be frugal at this time and youre acting like you know what economics is all about. We no your type oga.. If you would quote me or respond to any post next time.. Try removing your brain feom your shoe... And use it wisely.

Your point is hopelessly misplaced. The OP did well on his point, I can see they're cerafully thought through. However, you have blasphemed. The spending usually advised for period like this is expected on the side of government, multinational companies, etc. Less, is expected of the poor masses as regards spending. Even the government, companies and NGOs have advised on cost cutting economics for the citizenry. Or didn't you just read Femi Adesina say his salary was slashed by one-third and he goes without food? So which government do you want to represent here?
Be guided.
